Our friends at Hope for Paws have done it again! When Eldad came across a homeless dog at the Los Angeles River, he knew he had to help. With a few treats and a lot of patience, he managed to get the pup into a crate to take her back to the shelter.

After an evaluation, the Hope For Paws team discovered that the dog, now named Lotus, actually happened to be sick with a condition called Thrombocytopenia. Thank goodness they found her, because not only is this precious pup now being treated, she's also looking for her furever home!
